Listen very carefully I will say this only once

[Willow]

I am sitting here on a Sunday evening watching the very first episode of 'Allo 'Allo, that I have watched over and over again, but still laugh at almost every single one of the jokes.

Which got me thinking (and yes there probably has been a similar thread on this) there have been some classic comedy programs over the years, but at the moment I have found it hard to find a series that I love. I mean a few years back 'My Family' was great, but it soon got repetitive and without Nick, almost pointless. And I have to admit I am slightly addicted to Scrubs ... but what about the older classics? or the new ones?

I mean think of, Red Dwarf, Britas' Empire, 'Allo 'Allo, Dad's Army, Blackadder and the list goes on.... So what are your favorite programs then?

Watched all the "max and paddy road no nowhere" episodes last week at work after my Yorkshire shift partner keep going on about it, very funny

"There called the Belgrano sisters on the count of the number of sailors that have gone down on them"

"Raymond?, Raymond the Bastred?"

Drop The Dead Donkey was good. Doesn't really work as well when repeated.

Dead Like Me is a fairly recent and slightly twisted show.

All the best

Heh...

'Life is like a butterfly, da da dee da dee da da da...'

I always liked The Good Life and To the Manor Born... Understated humour.

Never watched only fools or porridge... For comedy, you now have River City, THAT is hilarious. The accents alone; "Rocheen, ROCHEEN!!" Some weird Aberdonian accent...

I now want to do some serious Red Dwaf-athons with my entire collection of Red Dwarf videos. All I need is too much time on my hands and a video player....

Not a huge fan of old comedies, though Red Dwarf I find funny as I've only seen very few of them. Only fools and horses is on so much you can't really avoid it (even on planes) and seen them so many times it's getting a bit old now.

Blackadder I used to be made to watch during History at school (lazy teacher?) and consequently never found it that funny, just a chore.

Bottom I used to watch as a kid, made me laugh and still does when I rarely see it, gave me a realistic insight into Wolverhampton

Bottom.
The Young Ones.
Fawlty Towers.
The Fast Show.
Father Ted.
Harry Enfield & Chums although it's not /that/ old.
